This is the cover of Bobby by (Sandy) Alex G made by Cavetown and Conan Gray. Link to the original video:
In the video, the violin part of the original song is played on ukulele, but I transcribed it for guitar as
well:
e|-------------------|---------------| B|-------------------|--3------------| G|-4-5-4-0-2--0-----0|4---4-0-2-4-2-0| D|--------------0h2--|---------------| A|-------------------|---------------| E|-------------------|---------------|
But if you want you can still play it as Robin plays it on ukulele, which would be
A|0-1-0------------|0-3-0-----0----| E|------1-3-1-----1|------1-3---3-1| C|------------0-2--|---------------| G|-----------------|---------------|
Capo on 3rd fret.
Asterisk * means chord is played once.
Two asterisks ** means chords is played once and you pluck the high E, B and
G string immediatly after.

D A Bobby's just a friend of mine G He's on his back D A I'm on his mind D A He wakes me when he goes to work G His hands are cold D A His breath is smoke

D A Do you forget when we first met G You grabbed my hand D A I tore your dress D A I felt things I cannot express G But I lost my way D A I made my mess
